Новый мост, Modern bridge in Kirov, Russia

The Novy Most is a road bridge over the Vyatka in Kirov's Oktyabrsky district. On the left bank its approach road near the Avitek plant becomes Dzerzhinsky Street; on the right bank the bridge marks the start of the Kirov–Syktyvkar highway.

Construction began in 1986 as part of a planned bypass road around Kirov and continued with interruptions for more than ten years. The bridge was officially opened on 19 October 1998, though it was already in use by then. In 2007–2009, during reconstruction of the Old Bridge, it carried all freight traffic as the only crossing over the Vyatka near the city.

The bridge connects the industrial area near the Avitek factory to the Kirov-Syktyvkar highway, forming a vital link in the regional transportation network.

The bridge is open year-round for both vehicle and foot traffic as a major city thoroughfare. Plan your crossing during quieter times if you prefer a more relaxed walk across it.

Before construction, more than 30 garden plots were moved and a pit was dug on the site of the ski slope in front of Fileyskaya Hill. The outlet of the Kurya channel into the Vyatka was completely filled in, raising the water level and turning the channel into a standing pond.
